Skill development and training.

Agriculture Skill Development has been one of the core objectives of our Society since inception. With the launching of the Skill India programme, JVES took the initiative and was invited by the then Hon’ble Minister of Technical Education, Training & Skill Development, Govt. of West Bengal in 2019 to take this project ahead under Paschim Banga Society for Skill Development. JVES set up 6 Training Centers in North Bengal and started over 23 batches of multiple agri-skill training for the farmers. JVES was successful in completing 17 batches and providing certificates on Organic Farming and vermicompost production to over 500 candidates before it had to close due to Covid 19 protocol.

JVES plans to initiate the training under PBSSD for the various FPOs that are under their supervision soon and provide vast ranging training from farm mechanization, Precision farming and Organic Farming to the farmers soon.
